Question 1

Does the refurbished unit come with the calibration microphone in order to provide Digital Cinema Auto Calibration (D.C.A.C.)?

Accepted Answer

This receiver is equipped with a D.C.A.C. (Digital Cinema Auto Calibration) function which allows you to perform automatic calibration. The refurbished unit I received came with a Remote control, an Optimizer microphone, AM loop antenna, an FM wire antenna, and a Setup guide. You will need to go online to Sony Support to get the complete Help guide (User Manual.

Question 2

Will this pass through 4K video without problems?

Accepted Answer

It is supposed to do 4k, but I don't believe 4k Ultra.  The Sony site has the full operations manual.  I have not tried 4k with it.  My research landed me on some message boards where some folks reported issues with the On Screen Display when using 4k sources...but I cannot confirm.

Question 3

If this unit does not have Bluetooth, what good would the free bluetooth speaker with purchase be?

Accepted Answer

It is an outside perk. Use it with your phone or another device. The receiver works great for what it is intended to do. If you require Bluetooth then this is not the receiver for you though on average I have seen the price as much as $100 higher for just having Bluetooth so ask yourself how much it is worth to you.

Question 4

Is this unit still under warranty?

Accepted Answer

No warranty stated with the one I purchased. But yoy may be able to get some kind of Square Trade coverage.

Question 5

Can this receive Digital HD FM stations? Not just the primary, yet the ch2 and ch3. Is there a way to save these as presets?

Accepted Answer

As far as I can tell, no.  The online help file doesn't mention Digital HD FM, doesn't list Digital HD FM in the device specifications, and doesn't show any examples.
